frank sinatra简介：外号「瘦皮猴」的法兰克·辛纳区出生于1915年12月12日，1939年起先后加入Harry James、Tommy Dorsey乐团担任主唱，1942年以个人名义单飞开始了超过半世纪之久的演艺生涯。辛纳区先后与多组大乐队合作，创造了成串的畅销单曲、专辑，得奖记录亦不胜枚举，葛莱美流行男歌手或传统流行演唱奖多非他莫属，1959、1965、66三次拿下年度专辑，1966年的"Strangers In The Night"同时是年度最佳单曲；五十岁那年已经获得了葛莱美终生成就奖的殊荣。
Sinatra出身贫寒，他的父母亲都是来自意大利的移民，因此他根本没有机会获得良好的教育。在他十六岁的时候，就中途辍学，选择演唱作为自己谋生的手段，当时由于他藉藉无名，很难获得唱片公司的合同，因此哪里能够挣到钱，哪里有观众，他就在哪里演唱。在此时，他的演唱只是他谋生的手段而已。然而他天生一份歌唱家的嗓子，在加入“霍布肯四人演唱小组”之后，终于得到了人们的注意。在1935年一次由广播电台举办的业余歌手大赛中，他们的乐队夺得了大奖，当时的奖项名字叫做“梅杰·鲍维斯业余天才小时”。他的小组在获胜之后，取得了同鲍维斯合作参加巡回演出的机会。后来他参加一部电影的拍摄，当时他试演的角色是一位脸涂黑了的男士，这种角色产生的影响力很难说是好还是坏。从1937年到1939年，这支乐队一直在新泽西州的一家叫做“生锈的船舱”的街头餐馆中演唱。从1939年起，他开始在WNEW电台的“舞曲天堂”节目中演唱，以此谋生。
三十年代未，哈里·詹姆斯离开了Benny Goodman的乐队，转而组建自己的乐队，当时他最先联络的歌手就是Sinatra。在1939年的夏天，Sinatra和詹姆斯的乐队录制了一首歌曲，曲名是《全部或一无所有》，这首歌总共卖出了八千张。在这张唱片发行的最初还未计人Sinatra的名下，因为他的名气还不大，还难以吸引听众。可是在1943年当哥伦比亚唱片公司重新出版此曲时，这首歌竟然成为了排行榜的冠军曲。
1940年Sinatra和道尔西开始合作录音。当时他的演唱由一支名为穿花衣服的管乐器吹奏者的合唱四人组伴唱，这支四重唱组中包括了约·斯塔福德和康尼·海思斯。这支乐队和西纳特拉一起走上了银幕，这是第一部由西纳持拉出演主要角色的电影。但是，《拉斯维加斯之夜》并未如他的歌曲一样受到观众的欣赏，这部电影既未赢得观众，也未获得奥斯卡金像奖，然而事实上此时的Sinatra已经成为了商业上的偶像崇拜的目标。他在1940年至1943年期间的一系列影片都受到了欢迎。
1942年，Sinatra已经成为了一位引人隔目的歌手。他买下了当初和道尔西定下的合同，成为了一位自由的歌手。在1942年他在派拉蒙剧院演出了一个月，当时的合作者是著名的单簧管演奏家Benny Goodman。当时的演出盛况空前，人们争相睹大师的风采，都想亲眼见一见他们心中的偶像。在1944年Sinatra的回聘演出竟然造成了交通阻塞，大约有两万五千青少年歇迷拥挤在街道之上，壮观的场面几乎使人忘记了这还是在二次世界大战期间。1943年，他为哥伦比亚唱片公司录制了他首张个人独唱音乐会。而在其后的十年里，他先后录制了86张个人唱片，其中有33张成为了排行榜上的前十名。这种业绩在今天简直是无法想象的，可以毫不夸张地说，当时的Sinatra是当之无愧的天皇巨星。音乐上的成功促使Sinatra重又萌生了上银幕的念头。
在1951年他的婚变成为了报纸争相报道的话题，他离开了自己的妻子南希，同著名影星爱娃·加德纳结婚这在当时被认为是不义之举，南希成为了人们同情的对象，西纳特技和加德纳则成为了受谴责的目标。与此同时，在五十年代初盛行于美国文艺界的麦卡锡主义也把矛头指向了西纳持拉。
在1946年，他赢得了一项奥斯卡金像奖的特别奖并作为赞成宗教和种族宽容的代言人的努力建立起他作为自由主义者以及具有进步思想的个人主义者的声望。也许在这与实际相差甚远，但在公众的眼中，Sinatra确实是值得广泛尊重的。他的这种声望一直延续到六十年代，直到他支持的党派换成了共和党。
1954年，Sinatra再次赢得了奥斯卡金像奖，他成功地出演了影片《从此到永远》，这帮助他走出了五十年代中期开始的低谷期。
六十年代，西纳持拉重新确认了他在爵士乐坛的地位，他先后录制了有唐·科斯塔和尼尔·海夫蒂编曲的专辑。另外，还和Count Basie合作。
他曾经退休过一段时间，但在1973年他录制的《奥尔的蓝眼睛又和从前一样》爬上了排行榜的第十五位。他的下一张专辑成绩也不错，进人了前四十名，这张名为《西纳特技一主要事件》的两张唱片装的专辑中因为一些乏味的素材而显得杂乱无章。在1980年已经65岁的Sinatra重返排行榜，此次他推出的是专辑《三部曲：过去，现在和未来》。
西纳持拉的私生活简直就可以写一本书。他的一系列婚姻丑闻，在旅馆和夜总会中的意外事件对于俱乐部老板，演艺人士，评论家的谣言以及报复，还有同黑帮的瓜葛早在基蒂·凯莱并不著名的传记出版之前就充斥于大大小小豹报刊和杂志中。
Frank Sinatra was arguably the most important popular music figure of the 20th century, his only real rivals for the title being Bing Crosby, Elvis Presley, and the Beatles. In a professional career that lasted 60 years, he demonstrated a remarkable ability to maintain his appeal and pursue his musical goals despite often countervailing trends. He came to the fore during the swing era of the 1930s and '40s, helped to define the "sing era" of the '40s and '50s, and continued to attract listeners during the rock era that began in the mid-'50s. He scored his first number one hit in 1940 and was still making million-selling recordings in 1994. This popularity was a mark of his success at singing and promoting the American popular song as it was written, particularly in the 1920s, '30s, and '40s. He was able to take the work of great theater composers of that period, such as Jerome Kern, Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, Cole Porter, and Richard Rodgers, and reinterpret their songs for later audiences in a way that led to their rediscovery and their permanent enshrinement as classics. On records and in live performances, on film, radio, and television, he consistently sang standards in a way that demonstrated their perennial appeal.
The son of a fireman, Sinatra dropped out of high school in his senior year to pursue a career in music. In September 1935, he appeared as part of the vocal group the Hoboken Four on Major Bowes' Original Amateur Hour. The group won the radio show contest and toured with Bowes. Sinatra then took a job as a singing waiter and MC at the Rustic Cabin in Englewood, NJ. He was still singing there in the spring of 1939, when he was heard over the radio by trumpeter Harry James, who had recently organized his own big band after leaving Benny Goodman. James hired Sinatra, and the new singer made his first recordings on July 13, 1939. At the end of the year, Sinatra accepted an offer from the far more successful bandleader Tommy Dorsey, jumping to his new berth in January 1940. Over the next two and a half years, he was featured on 16 Top Ten hits recorded by Dorsey, among them the chart-topper "I'll Never Smile Again," later inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. During this period, he also performed on various radio shows with Dorsey and appeared with the band in the films Las Vegas Nights (1941) and Ship Ahoy (1942).
In January 1942, he tested the waters for a solo career by recording a four-song session arranged and conducted by Axel Stordahl that included Cole Porter's "Night and Day," which became his first chart entry under his own name in March 1942. Soon after, he gave Dorsey notice. Sinatra left the Dorsey band in September 1942. The recording ban called by the American Federation of Musicians, which had begun the previous month, initially prevented him from making records, but he appeared on a 15-minute radio series, Songs By Sinatra, from October through the end of the year and also did a few live dates. His big breakthrough came due to his engagement as a support act to Benny Goodman at the Paramount Theatre in New York, which began on New Year's Eve. It made him a popular phenomenon, the first real teen idol, with school girls swooning in the aisles. RCA Victor, which had been doling out stockpiled Dorsey recordings during the strike, scored with "There Are Such Things," which had a Sinatra vocal; it hit number one in January 1943, as did "In
